Musing Like I Know Better
11/28/02

Why? I don't know.
How 'bout 'cuz I said so?
Yeah, that'll get me far.
These words pour out of my head
and I write them down like scriptures
as if I were among the greatest writers
living or dead.
Like putting screws in wood;
that's how it all came to me.
And so behold my wisdoms,
true or not,
and welcome my phrases
as either you would great prophecies,
unspeakable jargon and verbal misnomers
or tabloid vulgarities, each of them in their separate entities.
If you said you couldn't go on like this I'd agree,
but I'm not on your side of the page.
I'm not gonna sit here and justify
anything someone refuses to understand
or explain what's already known.
After all, I've been there
and I can't help if you haven't.
